Good zoo tickets fill up weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: the 5 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
London Zoo 1-day entry with skip-the-line access to Asiatic lions, Sumatran tigers, Humboldt penguins, gorillas, and 2021 tanks.
“Excellent, informative and the dedication of the staff towards the animals I'd second to none.”
Chester Zoo entry in Cheshire, skip the line, for 30,000 animals, indoor habitats, Islands lazy river boat, and botanical gardens.
“Very good experience all guides were friendly and knowledgeable. Animals looked well looked after.”
Blackpool Zoo one-day ticket for about $26. Walk-through animals, dinosaur volcano exhibits, elephant base camp, and daily talks and feeds.
“I went to the zoo with my son and we had a wonderful time there. We enjoyed the scheduled animal shows the most. Would definitely visit if he zoo again.”
Twycross Zoo in Leicestershire: 1-day entry for families with hundreds of animals, outdoor play, splash pad, and Gruffalo Land.
“Really lovely place but wasted time queuing unnecessarily at the wrong place just inside the Entrance, having pre-booked and paid for tickets before arrival. Then ended up paying for parking TWICE because confused by the process of paying. Found the website hopeless for paying for parking in advance of arrival.”
Spend a full day at ZSL Whipsnade Zoo from Dunstable, home to 10,000+ animals, keeper talks, and huge kids play space.
“Excellent day particularly the flying bird display, the butterfly house and the elephant talk and evening feeding.”
Four nations, and the best of what each one puts on.
